Things To Check In Buying Boat Many people get started. in eutboarding by purchasing a ased boat. Experts offer the fol- bowing checklist for prospective out-boarders who are consider- ing a used craft. 1. Rum the boat to see if it handles satisfactorily. 2. Have the boat taken out of the water and check the bottom. See that planking abutts the transom and stem squarely and solidly. Sight along the keel for *"*thooks" (large concave inden- tations in the bottom caused by improper distribution of weight during storage). '"Hooks" will cause the boat to perform im- properly. Be suspicious of cracks which could become troublesome leaks. Seams and planks should be so joined as to remain watertight. $. Check for nail sickness (the symptoms of which are spots of rust on the surface of the paint over a nail, or, in some cases, rust streaking down the side from a nailhole). If the condition looks bad, chances are you're in for a complete re-fastening job. 4. Look inside the hull. See that frames and ribs are sound 'and uncracked. A badly crack- ed frame will cause the planks to work and the boat to leak. 5. Since most outboard boats are well ventilated, the chances of finding dry rot in an out. board hull are relatively slight. However, inspect a boat thor- oughly for rot if it has been completely covered during a prolonged storage period. If it has enclosed spaces, such as cabins, lockers and the like, look for dry rot. Blistered point may indicate the condition, but is not necessarily a cause. 6. A bad paint job, although it will affect a boat's appear- ance, is not dangerous in itself. However, it may indicate the previous owner's attitude to- ward maintenance, so inspect a badly painted craft thoroughly. If a poorly painted boat is pur- chased, it should be refinished to get best performance. Aluminum and glass boats, by nature of the material used in their construction, are dur- able. Be sure seams in an alum- inum boat are correctly joined and will not leak. Glass boats should be free of bad cracks. How about price?
